[Design Precautions]
WARNING
●Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system
operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable controller.
Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.
(1) Configure external safety circuits, such as an emergency stop circuit, protection circuit, and
protective interlock circuit for forward/reverse operation or upper/lower limit positioning.
(2) The programmable controller stops its operation upon detection of the following status, and the
output status of the system will be as shown below.
All outputs may turn on when an error occurs in the part, such as I/O control part, where the CPU
module cannot detect any error. To ensure safety operation in such a case, provide a safety
mechanism or a fail-safe circuit external to the programmable controller. For a fail-safe circuit
example, refer to Page 670, Appendix 9.
(3) Outputs may remain on or off due to a failure of an output module relay or transistor. Configure an
external circuit for monitoring output signals that could cause a serious accident.

[Design Precautions]
[Design Precautions]
WARNING
●In an output module, when a load current exceeding the rated current or an overcurrent caused by a
load short-circuit flows for a long time, it may cause smoke and fire. To prevent this, configure an
external safety circuit, such as a fuse.
●Configure a circuit so that the programmable controller is turned on first and then the external power
supply. If the external power supply is turned on first, an accident may occur due to an incorrect output
or malfunction.
●For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to relevant manuals for the
network. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident.
●When changing data of the running programmable controller from a peripheral connected to the CPU
module or from a personal computer connected to an intelligent function module, configure an
interlock circuit in the sequence program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely.
For program modification and operating status change, read relevant manuals carefully and ensure
the safety before operation. Especially, in the case of a control from an external device to a remote
programmable controller, immediate action cannot be taken for a problem on the programmable
controller due to a communication failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the
sequence program, and determine corrective actions to be taken between the external device and
CPU module in case of a communication failure.
CAUTION
●Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power
cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction
due to noise.
●When a device such as a lamp, heater, or solenoid valve is controlled through an output module, a
large current (approximately ten times greater than normal) may flow when the output is turned from
off to on. Take measures such as replacing the module with one having a sufficient current rating.
●After the CPU module is powered on or is reset, the time taken to enter the RUN status varies
depending on the system configuration, parameter settings, and/or program size. Design circuits so
that the entire system will always operate safely, regardless of the time.

insert the module fixing projection(s) into the hole(s) in the base unit and press the module until it
snaps into place. Incorrect mounting may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the module. When
using the programmable controller in an environment of frequent vibrations, fix the module with a
screw. Tighten the screw within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the
screw, short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in
drop, short circuit, or malfunction.
●When using an extension cable, connect it to the extension cable connector of the base unit securely.
Check the connection for looseness. Poor contact may cause incorrect input or output.
●When using a memory card, fully insert it into the memory card slot. Check that it is inserted
completely. Poor contact may cause malfunction.
●When using an SD memory card, fully insert it into the SD memory card slot. Check that it is inserted
completely. Poor contact may cause malfunction.
●When using an extended SRAM cassette, fully insert it into the connector for cassette connection of
the CPU module. Close the cassette cover after inserting to avoid looseness of the extended SRAM
cassette. Poor contact may cause malfunction.
●Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing the
module. Failure to do so may result in damage to the product. A module can be replaced online (while
power is on) on any MELSECNET/H remote I/O station or in the system where a CPU module
supporting the online module change function is used. Note that there are restrictions on the modules
that can be replaced online, and each module has its predetermined replacement procedure. For
details, refer to this manual and in the manual for the corresponding module.
●Do not directly touch any conductive part of the module, the memory card, the SD memory card, or
the extended SRAM cassette. Doing so can cause malfunction or failure of the module.
●When using a Motion CPU module and modules designed for motion control, check that the
combinations of these modules are correct before applying power. The modules may be damaged if
the combination is incorrect. For details, refer to the user's manual for the Motion CPU module.
WARNING
●Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before wiring. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock or damage to the product.
